I am committed to helping my clients lead better lives and overcome challenges that bring them to therapy. As a graduate of the Virginia Tech Marriage and Family Therapy program I have experience working with adolescents, women, men and couples. As a former military wife and mother of an active duty service member I can help by providing behavioral health care to military service family members.

I've had success practicing a cutting edge modality called "Lifespan Integration" or LI. The most noticeable use of LI can be seen in the clearing of past or recent trauma and eating disorders. Client's report they have found relief in a few sessions and felt better about life and were better able to handle intimate relationships.

After more than 9 experience years in the mental health field I offer a safe and supportive space. My experience includes helping individuals overcome anxiety, depression, life transitions, trauma, grief/loss, and relationship issues. I specialize in Christian counseling if you are seeking a faith based approach to your problems.

Specific Issue(s) I'm Skilled at Helping With

My areas of expertise include working with clients who have experienced recent or past trauma, childhood abuse, depression, anxiety and PTSD. I am certified in level 1 and level 2 of Lifespan Integration therapy. Lifespan Integration is a cutting edge therapy developed by Peggy Pace in 2003. Lifespan Integration has many functions, all of which serve to heal the entire body-mind system. Here are the reasons why Lifespan Integration works. Long after trauma is over, we hold within our minds and bodies the thoughts, emotions and fears that wound us. Lifespan Integration heals pain and suffering by using a healing timeline that integrates the painful memory which was not fully processed.

The timeline component clears the emotional distress that clients are holding in their minds and bodies and works to create change in the brain which results in new thinking and behavior. The most noticeable use of Lifespan Integration can be seen in the clearing of past or recent trauma. Adults who were abused in childhood have found relief in a few sessions and reported they felt better about life and were better able to handle their intimate relationships.
